Civil District to act as chairman of
a district committee Of 3 coIored
men, the others to be appointed by
himself whose duty it shalt be 10
work up the interest Of Prohibition
among the colored people. Be it
further sesolvsd:
That it shall be the duty Of said
district committees both white and
colored during the coming canvass to
use every honorable means to promote
the interest Of Prohibition, and
to acertain as nearly as pos sible the
strength of the vote for and against
tie proposed amendment, and re
port the same to the chairman of
the county executive committee.
The following officers were elected

-ssssEzs=rrrlKzo1aEzs1sggg How Suinhur Matches Are Mad

Nearly all the operations of match making are now carried on by machinery. The wood is first sawed into blocks of uniform length, usually one and half inches long, or the length of the match These blocks are then fed into the cut ting machine, which cuts twelve matches at every stroke. To make round matches the wood is forced through perforations in metal plates. The splints are then pushed into slats arranged on double chain 250 feet long. On this they are carried to the sulphur vat, dipped therein by mechanical movement and then in the same manner to the phosphorus vat and dipped. Machines are also used for making the boxes and packing the splints . therein.
 As tho consumption of matches is most enormous-being estimated at six day for every man, woman and child ill Eu- rope and North America-they form an important article of commerce, and the invention of machinery for their manu- fracture has proved of great advantage. Put the especial value of machinery is
 Lat it has so largely reduced the mor- tality caused by working over the phos- phorus. The substance, when heated, throws off fumes which cannot be con- tinuously breathed without causing dis ease. In large factories 144,000 small boxes of matches are often made and packed ready for shipping in a single Philadelphia Times.

C1ergrmen,s sore Throat.

An English surgeon claims to have dis covered the cause of clergymen's sore throats. No other speakers are affected in this way, and he has come to the con clusion that the malady is induced by speaking down to congregation from an elevated pulpit, thereby depressing the vocal organs and causing irritation and congestion. If clergymen would hold the head erect and speak up they would never have throat trouble, and even if already suffering to some extent they may cure themselves by speaking in right position. There are bad habits of phonation, breath ing, etc., which a good teacher can easily correct, but the bending forward of the head and hanging over the sermon while reading it is worst of all, and any man can correct himself ill it.-Living Church.
